Went to college in NYC. One sat night at like 2am, I went to a corner deli to get something (probably cigs) and Ben Stiller was in there buying flowers, lol.
I was so drunk I was like "OMG, Ben Stiller, i LOVED something about mary!" (this was a few years after that came out--2000ish. He was kind of annoyed...

Diddy..back when he was going by Puff Daddy. He was in the airport and I saw him right before he got noticed by a million other people and got his autograph. Super nice guy.

Mark Whalberg. VERY nice and laid back. Was in the same restuarant as him in Boston.

You know the guy who played Bubba on "Mama's Family?" He was at a party at my house, sometime around 2000 or so.

I did too. This was in the '90s. I was so into those Lookout (label) bands.

My husband met Gwen Stefani in the '90s, said she was aloof and unfriendly to everyone there (he was a roadie and driver for some bands for a few years, made friends with a lot of 1990s alt type bands; Gwen Stefani was the only one he really had anything negative to say about).
